I don't know, but I look forward to the answer. I have a couple, myself, that I've had for years.

They look like they could be Cyb-Orc models from RAFM.

I agree that they look like Cyb-Orcs, but I'm not 100% certain. Closer, clearer pics of some individual figs would be great, and please include the bottom of the base.

I do not think these are GW models, sorrow. The bases aren't anything like I've seen on ANY GW model. The bases are more like the old RAFM and Partha styles, but don't indicate a manufacturer.

I agree (I was agreeing with warlordgarou's RAFM ID).

It's there now, though.

Wife's camera wont focus on the base but they all say Relm 90. The base is smaller than a GW 25mm base. $7 for 3 models huh? Is there much of an aftermarket for them. Since I picked them up they have done been collecting dust.

It looks like they're still available in the primary market--so, regrettably, probably not.

It might say "rafm" on the bottom.

I think they're fun figs for skirmishing etc. I've had my eye on the Rafm Reaction Marines (and Alternative Armies Ion Age figs" for that purpose for some time.

I can verify that these were from the Alternative Armies line by RAFM. Had a few back in the day looking for cheaper alternatives to GW figs. They were the Chapter House Studios of their day.
